The scientific origins of the Minotaur - Matt Kaplan

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1

The myth of the Minotaur tells the story of an enraged beast forever wandering the corridors of a damp labyrinth, filled with a rage so intense that its deafening roar shakes the earth. But is this story just fiction, or an attempt of our early ancestors to make sense of the natural world? Matt Kaplan examines the myth for its scientific roots. Lesson by Matt Kaplan

Actually the minotaur was the priest in the palace, who was wearing a mask of taurus skin in the ceremonies
Also the labyrinth is under the whole Heraklion county, it has some entrances and almost nobody knows

Small problem with this story is that a labyrinth is a maze and therefore by definition can not be inescapable. If there truly is no entrance or exit it is not a labyrinth.
